8、ortunately, people in Europe and the US now eat about 20 times as much sugar and at least five times as much fat as they did in 1800. This may have something to do with the increase in heart disease in Western countries . For wedding feasts(婚宴), the Bedouin people sometimes prepare a meal of stuffed
9、 roast camel. First, they stuff a fish with eggs. Then they put the fish inside a chicken. They put the chicken inside a whole roast sheep.

No, the worlds first hamburger comes from China. If youre scratching your head right now, youre not alone. But
14、Chinese hamburgers are very real and they definitely predate the hamburgers we call our own in the U.S. Known as rou jia mo, which translates to meat burger or meat sandwich, they consist of chopped meat inside a pita-like bun, and theyve been around since the Qin Dynasty, from about 221 BC to 207 B
15、C. Despite the differences between this Chinese street food and our American-style burgers, the rou jia mo has been called the worlds first hamburger.The rou jia mo originated in the Shanxi Province of China, and is now eaten all over the country. Its typically prepared and eaten on the street. The
16、dough(生面团) for the bun, or mo, consists of a simple mixture of wheat flour, water and maybe yeast. Of course recipes(食谱) may vary, but this basic equation makes for a chewy and subtle pillow for the delicious filling. While the mo is traditionally baked in a clay(泥土) oven, today its often fried in a
17、 pan. They may look a little like Chinese steamed buns or baozi, but the dough for those are, of course, steamed, not baked or fried.

20、invented hamburgerC. How to cook hamburger D. History of hamburgerDFrom July to October every year, about a quarter of the worlds blue whales feed in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of California. But the whales currently face a major threat in their favorite feeding area. Ships carrying cargo (货物)s
21、ail in the same area at the same time. All too often, the whales paths and the ships travel lines overlap (重叠),and a ship will hit a whale.According to a new study, these ship strikes have become a serious threat to the overall population of the worlds blue whales. Only about 10,000 of the creatures
22、 still exist worldwide. Blue whales are the largest known animals ever to live on Earth. Even so, if hit by a container ship, a blue whale will likely die from its injuries.In 2022 alone, large ships killed five blue whales in the waters off San Francisco and Los Angeles, California. The National Oc
23、eanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) says that because there are so few whales already, losing three to five from the California whale population every year is a significant loss. “The estimated population of blue whales in this part of the Pacific is 2,500”, says Sean Hastings, a NOAA analys
24、t. “So every whale counts toward this species moving off the endangered-species list.” Now, marine scientists must figure out how to protect the whales from the giant container ships. One very simple program is already under way in the Santa Barbara Channel, a waterway that separates mainland Califo
25、rnia from the nearby Channel Islands.The Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary has asked large container ships passing through the area to voluntarily slow down. Sailing slower will allow the ships crew (船员)more time to change course before hitting a whale.Several of the worlds largest shipping
26、lines are set to participate in the new program. For every ship that passes through the Santa Barbara Channel at or below the reduced speed of 12 knots (海里 / 小时),the company that owns the ship will be paid $2,500.12.

28、es will be scared away.B. Because blue whales are the largest animals in the world.C. Because many blue whales get killed throughout the year.D. Because the number of the blue whales is so small.14. According to Sean Hastings,its inferred that .A. the number of the blue whales is decreasing sharply.
29、B. the blue whales are still on the endangered-species list.C. most of the worlds blue whales live in the Pacific Ocean.D. blue whales are often disturbed by other endangered creatures.15. What are the last three paragraphs mainly about?A. The basic responsibility of a sailor. B. The worlds largest
30、shipping lines.C. Ways to slow down the speed of the ships. D. Measures to protect the blue whales. 第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。How to Overcome Worry When we worry about an event that may not occur,we waste precious energy and time.
